minus-squarearc@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up26·1 year agoDriving simulator where I can choose a real world location, similar to ms flight sim, where I can drive around in a 3D world
minus-squarecmbabul@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up13arrow-down2·1 year agoI would love this, put on an audiobook, get stoned, and drive around the alps or Southeast Asia. No traffic and no danger
minus-squarescorpionix@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 year agoAlps? No traffic? Mate, have you ever tried crossing the Alps during holiday season?
minus-squarecmbabul@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down1·1 year agoNope! But why would they program the traffic into such a simulation?
minus-squareclubb@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up10·1 year agoThe closest thing to that would probably be euro truck simulator 2
minus-squareShadowCatEXE@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·1 year agoCity Car Driving exists, but I don’t know how extensive it is. You can also install mods on ETS2 to drive around in normal cars.
minus-squarearc@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI tried that on my steam deck, controller support is non existent from when I last played
minus-squarearc@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoId say closest game right now is assetto Corsa with mods Ets2 has trucks, even if you mod a car in it still feels and drives like a truck I want to rip it around my home town in a fast car, swerving through traffic lool
minus-squarekey@lemmy.keychat.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·1 year agoIsn’t there a thing on Google earth where you can sorta do that? A modern version of the 1998 Sierra game with real world data would be great. I spent so much time in the freedrive mode on that back in the day.
minus-squarearc@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI think I remember an aeroplane in Google earth lol I know there’s a very basic version of this online somewhere, you can drive a car on top of Google maps satellite view
minus-squareFQQD@feddit.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 year agoJust wait for content creators to play this drunk
minus-squareiamericandre@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4arrow-down2·edit-21 year agoBeam.ng has some pretty good maps where you can just drive around. They aren’t quite fleshed out as much but there’s a ton of mods too so you might be able to find one that’s just a Sunday driver.
minus-squarearc@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI’d say assetto Corsa is better right now, beamng feels like a crash simulator or even just a scene creator rather than a proper driving sim In asetto Corsa I can get real world cars in real world maps and drive it around

Realism!
what if they made it multiplayer
I would not play such a game
